​ @STOP it's not like there's gonna be some sort of student exchange program or something during WW2 while the USA is firebombing the entire place so hard that the Manhattan Project needed to appeal all the way up the chain of command to the president himself to say "please stop firebombing every city, we need at least one or two untouched for the atom bomb" and all the major cities were firebombed already, the targets chosen for the atom bombs were just among the least firebombed places. and during WW2, people were extremely suspicious of other races. even the USA had camps for it's Japanese people during the war. also "the plane i was supposed to be on crashed" cliché with a picnic. japan is a particularly xenophobic country. even today as progressive as they are, there are places like pubs and such that non-Japanese are not allowed to go in. these are a few of my reasons to press X to doubt.

Yamaguchi Tsutomu: survived an atomic bomb, went to work, got yelled at by his boss, survived another atomic bomb, lived to 93 Onoda Hiroo: kept fighting for nearly 30 years after the end of WWII because he didn’t realize Japan had surrendered and only stood down when his original commanding officer (who was also somehow still alive) officially relieved him of duty. Lived to 91. Real legends, these guys.

Onoda killed over 30 innocent civilians on the island not counting the shootout with the police force after the war just because he refused to surrender. He did know Japan surrendered, he just refused to believe it. Lets not twist words now shall we. A fact that is completely omitted in his japanese autobiography.

That's very true but same time strategic bombing was an excepted form of warfare for most countries back then before guided bombs. The atomic bombs were simply the ultimate and more effective form of strategic bombing. Plus the combination of the atomic bombs and the Soviet pushing the Japanese out of Manchuria saved alot of lives for all involved in the long run. Additionally the Japanese seem to get a lot more sympathy the their German and Soviet counter parts but did just as evil acts like Nanking and the use of Filipino Civilians as Human shields against US Artillery. WW2 was brutal.

@@trevisstallins4872 depends on your opinion of events. One thought is that the japanese surrendered after the thought that the atomic bombs where scary, and that little talk over the actual after effects of the bombs showed they knew nothing of the power of atomic weapons. Another is that since a vast majority of their military was in the south the soviet invasion was unexpected and more dangerous as by the time japan would have properly been able to relocate men and make defenses the soviets would have already taken Hokkido and preparing to invade mainland japan and the thought of being partitioned like germany the Japanese used the atomic bombs as a excuse to surrender under more preferable terms. Especially considering that japan was also trying to make atomic weapons and thus knew of their potential. Yet another view is that the emperor finally got tired of the infighting between the navy and army and Tojo's ability to take command of his empire and keep him relativly in the dark about the real ongoings of the war he decided to use what power he could to surrender. Then there is another view that japan wanted it to end that way, as they built a navy specifically made to combat America and a army to specifically fight China, and having the best pilots of the war that the imperial high command wanted to change the asian pacific to be even more western after seeing what the west did in the short amount of time bringing them out of the shogunate to a world power. Yet another idea was that since the japanese military was based off of Germany that all the problems where because of germany and when pushed back to mainland japan they realized this and had a change of heart. Its all about ones opinions i suppose. But regardless the deaths of innocents is still a crime whether its for the greater good or not.

There's some truth to what you say. Yes, the fire bombings did a lot more damage than the atom bomb, but the fires could be put out in due time where as radiation (especially in that time) would linger a lot more and be harder to detect and get rid of

Nagasaki was actually 3rd on the list... Tokyo was to be next, but the flight pattern and targets were changed due to weather... Nagasaki was hit with a far more powerful and different bomb than Hiroshima. Had the same fission reaction based bomb fell over Tokyo, the loss of life would have been *FAR* higher. When I was in school, my honors history teacher was a genius. The man obsessed over U.S. history. He showed the class exactly what, when, where, and why things happened as they did. He did so with a heavy heart. Everyone should learn from our history!!!

Sadako Sasaki was one such Hiroshima survivor. When she was a toddler, the bomb, little boy, was dropped on the city. She and her family survived. Her home was 1 mil from ground zero. Somehow, she survived without a scratch. Ten years after the war, she developed leukemia, as a result of the radiation from little boy Sasaki was given no less than a year to live. Sasaki's friend, Chizuko Hamamoto, told her the legend of the cranes and she set herself a goal of folding 1,000 of them, which was believed to grant the folder a wish. Although she had plenty of free time during her days in the hospital, Sasaki lacked paper, so she used medicine wrappings and whatever else she could scrounge; including going to other patients' rooms to ask for the paper from their get-well presents. Her best friend, Chizuko, also brought paper from school for Sasaki to use. But stories differ, and some say she died short of her goal, while others say she exceeds her goal She died at age 12 in 1955. Three years after she died, a statue called the children’s peace monument was unveiled with Sadako holding a paper crane. The plaque reads, “This is our cry. This is our prayer. Peace in the world."

Tsutomu Yamaguchi was a Japanese marine engineer and a survivor of both the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings during World War II. Although at least 70 people are known to have been affected by both bombings, he is the only person to have been officially recognized by the government of Japan as surviving both explosions. A resident of Nagasaki, Yamaguchi was in Hiroshima on business for his employer Mitsubishi Heavy Industries when the city was bombed at 8:15 AM, on 6 August 1945. He returned to Nagasaki the following day and, despite his wounds, he returned to work on 9 August the day of the second atomic bombing. That morning, while he was being told by his supervisor that he was "crazy" after describing how one bomb had destroyed the city, the Nagasaki bomb detonated. In 1957, he was recognized as a hibakusha of the Nagasaki bombing, but it was not until 24 March 2009, that the government of Japan officially recognized his presence in Hiroshima three days earlier. He died of stomach cancer on 4 January 2010, at the age of 93.
